I was searching Bob Finnegan because he was a friend of my dad in the Second WW. The picture was taken sometime between 1941-1945 in Bendigo, Australia. Long shot I know but would be amazing if so.

Mr. Finnegan was one of the sweetest people I have had the pleasure to know.

I have many fond memories of Bob as a child and as an adult. He will not only be remembered as a great uncle, but as a loving and kind person. You will be missed!
